See stop questioning them. They have our best interests at heart. And for our best interest them being able to go to the US for medical care is vitally important. That way they can come back and tell us more about what we will have.

Just do like the politicians do and go to the US for medical care, of course you would have to pay for it, but you are already doing that for them

Is an extra 2-6 % of interest worth the extra jobs. At least if it is Built by Bahamians then most of that money will initially be spent here. If paid to the Chinese it will be gone. But at the same time maybe the Chinese will not have to obey the minimum wage rule so the $290 million will be $400 million with non Chinese workers. All this can be known if Government was willing to allow us. But they won't so people just need to accept the $290 million loan at 2% for 20 years and the Chinese workers to build it. Stop questioning Government and just marvel at their brilliance.

Its 50 acres of which at least 14 are owned by Frankie Wilson, Darville has said that

Finally you get it. Ministers always know best and us mere Bahamians must learn not to question them

No point in going to the town hall. Government has made a decision and all EIA and other necessary approvals will say it is OK. Fact is a new hospital needs to be built, if this area, which i always thought was the old well areas and therefore prone to flooding, is the best then so be it. But Government should really show the reasons why other areas are not good and why PMH is not realistic. On PMH i know the land is scarce, but they could get a lot of land if they knocked down Collins house (yes a historic building but it is turning to ruin so of no use), build a multistorey car park on its location and then use the land used as a car park now for a new hospital. But all they are doing now is saying this is for here, like it or lump it.

This is a loan. They are not paying for it. At 2% interest over 20 years if compounded will mean it will cost around $432 million at the end. I am not saying that the 2% is a bad rate, just they should not be implying that the Chinese are paying for it, when it will be us. Of course the government of today fully knows they will most likely not be around when it comes time to pay, so they don't care.

Yes it is. As Mr. Gomez points out he is the owner of 50% of the shares. He also points out that as a Bahamian the Maryland court has no jurisdiction over him. The same court that says the other people can look after the dolphins. If that has no jurisdiction over him, then he is responsible (50%). Also by him wanting the funds for the sale of the dolphin in escrow so he can get his share, he is showing that he is responsible for them. If he wasn't then why does he want the funds in escrow?

When he got his 50% shares in the company he took over having to look after the dolphins. So yes he has a lot to do with them. But like most politicians he only wants to reap the rewards and not pay the bills.

This shows what a joke we are. The supreme court orders it to be shut, and yet it is still open. We all know why they could get away with that. We are a joke nation and have been for a while.
